So I love to cook and entertain, what's wrong with that? I host dinner parties all the time and have been asked to share recipes, pictures, ideas, etc., with co-workers, friends and family. I finally decided to make this happen, please enjoy!

Prosciutto Wrapped Asparagus

I know this isn't much of a post, but I just had to get something new on here! I've been on vacation to Philadelphia the last week and ran out of time to take pictures and post new recipes before I left! I spent a couple days in Philly, I did some shopping and ate out a lot. The last three days of my vacation I went to the Jersey Shore, it was beautiful and sunny, I think I even got some color (even though I wear 50 SPF). I decided that I need to be wealthy so I can vacation for a living, LOL.Ok, now on to the food...I was trying to think of a yummy, but easy appetizer for a dinner party and walked into the most delicious looking asparagus at the store, so I though why not do that with some prosciutto? All you have to do is blanch the asparagus for a few minutes in salted boiling water until they are barely tender, then shock in an ice bath to cool. After that you roll them up in a little prosciutto blanket, and voila...appetizer!

About Me

Food is fun, stress relieving, and who doesn't like to eat? I enjoy food way too much and often find myself throwing last minute dinner parties at the spur of a moment. If it's planned out it gets even more intense and if it's an event, well, I seem to go over the top! As much as I love my passion for cooking and food, the only thing that makes a great meal are the friends that come over and create the magic around the dinner table.
